Campylobacter virulence and survival factors
Food Microbiology, 2015Despite over 30 years of research, campylobacteriosis is the most prevalent foodborne bacterial infection in many countries including in the European Union and the United States of America. However, relatively little is known about the virulence factors in Campylobacter or how an apparently fragile organism can survive in the food chain, often with ...

Virulence factors of uropathogens
Current Opinion in Urology, 2002Urinary tract infections are among the most frequent infections encountered in developed countries. The vast majority of community-acquired urinary tract infections are caused by Escherichia coli. However, other bacterial species play an important role in nosocomial urinary tract infections.

Virulence factors of schistosomes
Microbes and Infection, 2012This review considers whether the products of schistosomes in the mammalian host can be considered as virulence factors. These include: the cercarial secretions used in infection, those of the migrating schistosomulum, surface-exposed proteins of adult worms in the portal system and their gut vomitus in the context of immune evasion, secretions of the ...

Virulence Factors in Anaerobes
Clinical Infectious Diseases, 1994Among the broad spectrum of species of anaerobic bacteria in the normal flora of humans, a few exhibit marked pathogenic potential and are responsible for the majority of infections. The factors that determine the virulence of particular species are varied and probably interrelated.

Virulence factors of Toxoplasma gondii
Microbes and Infection, 2012Toxoplasma gondii virulence is dependent on factors involved in either parasite-host cell interaction, or in host immune response. It is essentially defined in the mouse and little is known concerning human infection. The genetic dependence of virulence is a growing field, benefiting from the recent development of research of the population structure ...

Virulence Factors in Candida species
Current Protein & Peptide Science, 2020:Fungal diseases are severe and have very high morbidity as well as up to 60% mortality for patients diagnosed with invasive fungal infection. In this review, in vitro and in vivo studies provided us with the insight into the role of Candida virulence factors that mediate their success as pathogens, such as: membrane and cell wall (CW) barriers ...

Virulence factors of urinary pathogens
Clinical Science, 1986Despite the widespread use of antibiotics urinary tract infections (UTI) remain among the most common bacterial infections in the human population. About 5% of adult females are likely to have a UTI at any moment in time, while more than 50% of all women will experience a UTI at some stage in their lives [l].

Pathogens, such as bacteria, viruses, protozoa and fungi, generate molecules that provide them with a selective advantage, often at the expense of the host. These molecules, or virulence factors, enable pathogens to colonize the host through several mechanisms.

Virulence Factors of Clostridium difficile
Clinical Infectious Diseases, 1990In addition to the two major toxins of Clostridium difficile--toxins A and B, which represent the major virulence factors--a number of other putative virulence factors have been described. These factors include fimbriae and the ability to associate with gut cells/mucus, the production of a capsule, the secretion of a range of hydrolytic enzymes, the ...
